I took a class about incorporating vintage linens in quilts from Cindy Needham years ago. She inspired me to do something creative with the linens I have from my Mom and Grandmother. Here is the result:

On The Hunt!
I was birding one morning and saw two barn owls flying over a field, looking for breakfast. It was 8 am, a very unusual time to see owls flying. What a fabulous treat for me! Those birds inspired me to make this piece that I call, "On the Hunt!". I show the owl at night because that is when you would normally expect them to be out.

Three Beauties And A Beast at Road to California 2024!
This piece was inspired by the bison I saw at Custer State Park in South Dakota. I added the Cattle Egret to it because I love birds and there has to be a bird in every art quilt I make now!
It will be at the Road to California Quilt Show in January 2024. Ontario Convention Center. Be there or be square! Thanks for visiting my blog!

I love the Victorian Building the museum is in.

"The Royal Treatment" will be in the Birds of a Fiber Exhibit
I'm very proud to have my peacock art quilt, "The Royal Treatment" accepted in the 5th Annual "Birds of a Fiber" exhibit.
"The Royal Treatment", Eileen WintemuteThis exhibit will be held at the Pacific Northwest Quilt and Fiber Arts Museum in La Conner, Washington. The exhibit runs from January 26th through February 27, 2022. The museum address is 703 South 2nd Street, La Conner, WA.
I've had it as a goal to have one of my pieces in that museum when I saw it on a fishing trip years ago. It is a cute little building in a cute little town.
Here is a detailed photo of my quilt:
